IOTA

IOTA is an open-source distributed ledger protocol launched in 2015 that goes ‚beyond blockchain‘ through its core invention of the blockless ‚Tangle‘. The IOTA Tangle is a quantum-resistant Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG), whose digital currency has a fixed money supply with zero inflationary cost.

IOTA uniquely offers zero-fee transactions & no fixed limit on how many transactions can be confirmed per second. Scaling limitations have been removed, since throughput grows in conjunction with activity; the more activity, the more transactions can be processed & the faster the network. Further, unlike blockchain architecture, IOTA has no separation between users and validators (miners / stakers); rather, validation is an intrinsic property of using the ledger, thus avoiding centralization.

IOTA is focused on being useful for the emerging machine-to-machine (m2m) economy of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), data integrity, micro / nano-payments, and other applications where a scalable decentralized system is warranted.

Our vision: „The real IOTA revolution will take place when applications are realized that benefit the industry as well as investors, and when the broader population understands and accepts IOTA as well as recognizes benefits in their daily lives. We want to support this process as an independent group“
